Skeletal consideration for movement Flashcards
What do bones require to grow and strengthen?
Mechanical stess
What is apart of the skeletal system?
Bones, cartilage, ligaments, and joints
What is physical activity important for?
Development, maintenance of skeletal intergrity and strength
What may cause osteoclast to activate?
A sedimentary lifestyle
What creates the greatest overload?
Muscle activity with external loads
What are 2 properties that bone has?
anisotropic and viscoelastic
What response depends on the direction of the load application?
Anisotropic
What response depends on the rate and duration of loading?
Viscoelastic
What allows bones to adapt to the force demand?
Viscoelastic
What can happen to stress over time?
The viscoelastic property of the bone can only stand a certain duration therefore things like stress fractures can occur
What is Wolffs Law?
Bone will be thicker at areas of high stress, and thinner at areas of low stress
Where is spongy bone found?
High stress areas
What is a response to decreased stress?
Bones become weaker, osteoclasts dominate
What is a response to increased stress
bones become stronger, osteoblasts dominate
What are some goals of physical activity in adolescents and adult hood?
Exercise may help attenuate loss
At what age does minimize decline and decrease by .05% per year?
40 years old
Who might lose a significant amount of bone mass?
Astronauts
When does your body adapt to carry least amount of bone mass?
Inactivity
What are the different types of loading
Compression, tension,sheer, torsion, Bending
What load does muscle apply to bones
Tension
What is considered compression?
Walking ( floor and body are applying equal pressure)
What force has the highest risk of injury
Sheer ( pressure is being applied to the shaft)
What force is compression and tension combined?
Bending
Sheer force of bone is a ______ and torsion is a type of ________
compression, tension
Most compression comes from______ and most tension comes from _________.
The ground/body weight, muscle attachment
Stress equals
force applied
Strain equals
Deformation
What is the failure point in a bone?
Fracture
What are the 2 regions in the bone ( stress strain curve)
Elastic and plastic
When does the bone restore to normal shape?
When pressure is done being applied( elastic regions)
In what region would permanent deformation be in the bone?
Plastic region
What region is the quickest?
Plastic
What can this graph tell us?
Bone can handle a lot of Compression and not alot of shear force
What does the idealized stress strain curve tell us?
The about of force a material can handle before breaking and its pliability
what force is perpendicular?
Shear
What force is shown?
Compression
What force is shown?
Tension
What force is shown?
Shear
What force is shown?
Torsion
What force is shown?
Bending
What are the 2 types of bone fractures?
Traumatic and Stress fracture
When does a traumatic fracture occur?
When the bone goes past the plastic region
Resorption ______ bone
weakens
What can stress fracture result from
Low nutrients and repetitive muscle forces pulling on bone, muscle fatigue, not enough rest
What does muscle fatigue cause
reduced shock absorption
